HOA Accounting Features

Advantos ERP BackOffice™ is a full service accounting and HOA management software package that combines property management functionality with a full complement of accounting functionality, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledger (with full financial statements), work order maintenance, budgeting, multi-state and multi-client payroll, and a complete banking module (with ACH, Credit Card and Lockbox processing). These functions all integrate seamlessly within a single database.

Batch Processing

All processing can be done in batch mode. For example, post receipts for any or all properties in just one form. Then, a single click will post all deposits to all bank accounts for all properties while printing deposit slips for each bank account. Our batch processing works for all data entry and display/print reports. Think of the time saved! You don't have to navigate in and out of your property's books to post for each property and print reports. Want a delinquent aging report for some or all your properties? Simply identify from a pop up list the properties you want, or leave blank, and seconds later reports start printing separately for each of your properties.
